Gwen's POV
I must have called at least five more times, before I eventually gave up. "He hates me. Hates me."
I hiccupped as a tear slid down my cheek, followed by another.
Why did I push him away? I needed him, far more than I'd care to admit. Taking one more chance, I pulled my phone out and sent him one text.
Peter, please. I need to talk to you.
Groaning, I stretched and stood up. A light was on in the kitchen. I shrugged and walked that way. My mother sat at the dining room table, a cup of coffee in her hands as she seemed to be in deep thought. Her features brightened once she caught sight of me.
"Hey, sweetie. Why are you up?"
I shook my head, "Couldn't sleep, I guess."
She nodded in understanding before motioning for me to sit down. I obeyed.
After a few minutes of silence, she gently asked, "How are you feeling? About everything."
I closed my eyes. Don't cry. Don't let the tears fall. Don't give in. Do.Not.Cry.
"Fine. Frustrated mostly." I took a deep breath before saying, "Peter's mad at me."
My mom's eyes widened in shock. "I don't understand. Why?"
I choked back another sob.
Do.Not.Cry.
"I um..practically kicked him out of the house earlier. I didn't want him just taking pity on me." I mumbled. "I don't blame him really."
"No!" she tried comforting me. "Have you tried-"
"I called him. Multiple times."
She appeared to be thinking, "Maybe if I rang up May...." She looked at me and offered a small smile, "I'll call Peter's aunt. She'll talk to him."
"No, Mom-" I object, but she is already pulling out her phone.
"Nonsense," she swatted her hand. "You and Peter...."
Sighing, I slump my head down on the table and groan out the words being exchanged. I don't sit back up until I feel a pat on my head.
"Gwen," my mother's eyes were grim, and my stomach clenched. "Peter's been admitted to the hospital."
